The Stories I've Told
I've told a lot of stories
over the years.
​
Some true.
Some not.
​
Some I got paid for.
Some not.
​
Some of you will like them.
Some not.
​
Such is life.
​
Novels
The Grifter's Protocol
A satirical story about greed, politics and hope that would
feel right at home among today's headlines.
Except for the hope part.
​
The Creative Exiles
A rogue creative team tries to hold the advertising industry financially accountable for creating advertising that
works before the industry can find a way to
silence them forever.
Screenplays
DreamWeaver
A screenplay, partly fact, partly fiction,
based on the book I Guarantee It, written by
George Zimmer, the man behind
Men's Wearhouse.
Sixty-Second Stories
Brands are stories.
A successful brand is a story told well.
Everything else is irrelevant.
Below are some stories-mostly told in sixty seconds.
And some would say, well.
Stories Without Words
